Getting to know Mayra Garcia

Hi there, I'm Mayra! My name is Mayra Garcia, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Southern California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Los Angeles, and my Bachelor’s from the University of California, Riverside. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults, specializing in depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and trauma. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, trauma-focused therapy, and EMDR to help clients understand themselves and guide them through healing. I provide services in both English and Spanish. My approach My approach varies based on each client’s needs. I implement a whole-person approach and meet clients where they are, using a combination of modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, trauma-focused therapy, and EMDR to support clients. My focus My style is effective for individuals facing challenges and those hesitant about therapy. I help clients navigate difficulties, build coping skills, and develop a more positive outlook. Treatment is client-centered and driven. My communication style My communication style is calm, accommodating, and personable. I want clients to feel comfortable and safe. I pride myself on actively and empathically listening without judgment. My journey to therapy I became a therapist because I have always wanted to help people. I am drawn to supporting individuals through difficult times and enjoy seeing them find inner strength and overcome adversity. My goals for you My approach starts by building trust and helping you get comfortable with therapy. Goal setting is collaborative and connected to your most pressing stressors.
